Current Technology Transfer Projects

TRIUMF, Canada's National Laboratory for Particle and Sub-Atomic Physics, is used by researchers to investigate the fundamental particles and forces that form the very essence of our universe. This quest to understand the fundamental nature of the universe may sound far removed from our daily lives, however as scientists seek to solve these riddles new knowledge, materials, and technologies are created which will touch our lives in ways both subtle and profound.

The following are just some of the many practical applications that have emerged from fundamental research into sub-atomic physics at TRIUMF:
